Hi All
I must apologise for being so quiet - been real busy its the silly season again!
Today we finally got our car passed through Motor Rego!!
Hip Hip Hooray
Now the real fun begins. We are arguing about what the number plate will say - I wan't ??? he wants ???
Second time lucky for us! The car is still in undercoat grey and none of the fancy chrome trickets fitted yet - but they passed it!!
The interior was finished with cardboard kick panels padded with black cheap $9.95 per metre black pin board carpet. It looks pretty cool considering. The complete interior fit out will be finished by the professionals in the winter - steel grey carpet with the Ford Phantom Purple duco.
For the summer we are just going to drive it in undercoat grey and then have it painted in the winter.
It goes down to the exhaust place early next week to have the side pipes fitted. These side pipes came from a guy in America who was selling them second hand and very very cheap by Australian standards- second hand to him but they had never been on a car. Because our car is the 100mm extended version we had to cut and put a small extension into the pipes so they fitted the length of the cockpit. Hubby has had them ceramic coated and you cant even tell where the join is.
When the side pipes are fitted I will post some new pictures.
I do hope the rain lets up here in Adelaide.....dont want to get wet driving this week end finally without a @#$@ permit!!
Cheers
